12 overview OVERVIEW

The South African Radiation community is represented by two associations, namely South African Radiation Protection Association (SARPA) and South African Radiation Protection Services (SARPS). The two associations will jointly host IRPA14.

SARPA has been established on 10 September 1997 with the vision to be an independent association which will serve the objectives and profession of radiation protection not only in South Africa but also in the broader Southern African region. The interest of SARPA is being served by an annually elected executive committee and has currently 160 corporate member and 15 institutional members.

Since its establishment SARPA hosted a number of national and international meetings and conferences, of which the most noteworthy being the First All African IRPA Regional Congress at Misty Hills, South Africa during May 2003. At the end of this All African Congress a programme of action has been agreed which included, amongst others that SARPA that SARPA should offer to host an IRPA International Congress. This was progressed when SARPA presented the intention to bid for the hosting of the IRPA 13 Congress in 2012, during the 2004 IRPA Congress in Madrid.

SARPS has been established in 1970 with the mission to promote Radiation Protection in Medicine, Science, Agriculture, Commerce and industry in South Africa with an emphasis on Health Care.

The society seeks to reduce the radiation dose received by the public, workers and patients by promoting awareness of the radiation protection procedures and techniques. This is achieved through congresses, lectures ad ongoing training among its members.

The society provides a forum for the discussion of radiation protection issues and is resource centre for radiation protection. The interest of SAPRS is being served by an annually elected executive committee and has currently 50 members.

IRPA 50TH ANNIVERSARY

On the 50th anniversary of the IRPA, its Associate Societies and members, reaffirm their commitment to sharing experiences with those engaged in radiation protection activities across the world and through this process enhance radiation protection culture and practices worldwide. This theme statement also underscores the IRPA’s evolution to make it a more effective and inclusive global radiation protection network to ensure its effective and influential role in a rapidly changing world so as to promote the protection of all citizens across the world. The participation of Associate Societies and individual members advances the IRPAs common goal of learning from each other’s experience in order to produce better outcomes for all people. The IRPA continues to expand its network with new ideas and new partners and welcomes collaboration with all those countries interested in sharing knowledge and expertise in radiation protection.

The Organising Committee is planning to celebrate the 50th anniversary of IRPA by hosting various very special events highlighting this wonderful occasion. The organising committee promises a programme of not only serious reflections but also of fun and laughter.

Some of the local internationally recognised experts that will provide technical support to IRPA14 include the following persons: Dr. Alex Tsela (SATSI) Dr. Gert de Beer (Necsa) Dr. Japie van Blerk (AquiSim Consulting) Mr. Josua Ellis (Anglo Gold) Mr. Marc Maree (Eskom) Mr. Zama Zituta (Goldfields) Mr. Frik Beeslaar (Necsa) Mr. Charles Krös (Necsa)

CONGRESS THEME

The IRPA theme will be “IRPA Practicing Radiation Protection – Sharing the experience of the last 50 years and new challenges”. Worldwide, an expansion of the utilisation of the nuclear energy and nuclear technology is experienced. Deciding about future developments in the nuclear sector requires balanced and trustworthy information about issues such as the relative environmental effects of different options, the safety of installations, economics and the availability of resources. It is proposed that the 2016 IRPA conference addresses these and other pressing issues such as the need for improved stakeholder involvement in decision making. In developing the Conference Programme, general aspects such as radiation protection challenges in the expansion of the nuclear industry, trends in the development of radiation protection up to and beyond 2016 as well as radiation protection culture will be further elaborated upon.

INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT GROUP

The support and involvement of a broad range of radiation protection experts from different geographical locations is considered as very important for the IRPA 14 Conference. The support of internationally recognised advisers will be sought to ensure that the IRPA 14 Conference will meet the need and expectations of the international radiological protection community.

SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME

The responsibility of the scientific programme will be with the International Congress Programme Committee (ICPC) whose chairperson will be appointed by IRPA. The programme would be developed within the thematic areas to be decided upon by the International Conference Organising Committee and the appointed Programme committee.

Here’s a taste partial to its brew in view of the warm climatic conditions that of what to expect: prevail.

Biltong and boerewors - these must be our national icons in the food arena. In the early days before refrigeration the Dutch preserved excess meat from the hunt by rubbing it with salt, pepper, coriander, vinegar and saltpetre and hanging it out to dry. Meat treated in this manner lasted indefinitely as long as it was kept dry. Boerewors is a robust farmer’s sausage. The meat is spicy and redolent of coriander and sizzles and splatters companionably when slapped on the coals or dropped onto a hot skillet.

Bobotie - a traditional Cape Malay dish of spiced mince.

The CCID Social development department consists of three Field Workers and a dedicated Social Development Manager. At the heart of the CCID’s mandate is the vision to ensure that Cape Town is a safe, clean and caring city. The CCID also promotes the city for business and world-class events.

To date, thanks to the work of the CCID, the Central City is now a place where the people of Cape Town can work, live, relax and experience a unique, pleasant urban environment.

The formation of the CCID – which has become an internationally-acclaimed model of public-private partnership – was a significant event for Cape Town because it was the first time a major South African city had implemented a fully constituted, legally bound City Improvement District covering the core of the Central Business District.

The CCID works closely with its partners to offer safety and security, quality urban management and social development services to stakeholders in the Central City.

CCID safety and security measures include visible policing, reaction units, policing of traffic infringements, ATM fraud detection, regulation of informal trading, event security, public assistance, vehicle breakdown assistance and security forums.

CCID urban management consists of four precinct managers who monitor the streets and public spaces in Cape Town on a daily basis. The managers receive regular report-backs on defects within the precincts. They hold regular meetings with local authorities with the aim of developing urban management solutions.

The CCID provides a dedicated top-up cleansing service, making use of previously unemployed people, in the Central City. Streets and public spaces are kept clean and graffiti-free by 65 dedicated cleaners around the clock.

South Africa is a long-haul destination for most international delegates. As such it makes sense to combine a trip to South Africa with a visit to one or more of the magnifi cent destinations that are on offer. From spectacular beaches to superb wildlife experiences, from deserts to one of the most stunning waterfalls in the world, Africa beckons with all that is great and wonderful. Here is a small sample of tours that will be on offer. The organisers will also tailor-make itineraries on request and collaborate closely with delegates in creating unique and special experiences.

The Garden Route and Eastern Cape This tour traditionally commences in either Port Elizabeth or Cape Town and works equally well in either direction. The tour visits the famed Garden Route, with a dramatic and spectacular coastline of cliffs interspersed with endless golden beaches, huge natural lagoons, and thick indigenous coastal forests. Inland there are mountain passes and desert scenery and the famed Cango caves, as well as the Addo Elephant National Park with its large elephant herds. The tour usually lasts three nights and four days, and it is also possible to do this, and indeed any other tour, as a self drive. There are also a variety of luxury game lodges to choose from.

Kruger National Park and Mpumalanga There are direct fl ights between Cape Town and Kruger International airport on the edge of Kruger Park. Alternatively, main tours commence and end in Johannesburg, which is a major hub for many international fl ights. Standard tours visit the highlights of the eastern escarpment with its waterfalls and canyons, rich mining history and dramatic scenery. The tours then lead on to the world-renowned Kruger National Park, which exposes travellers to the very best that Africa has to offer in terms of wildlife experiences. Stays can either be in National Park’s accommodation within the park, or at the luxurious private lodges situated in the private reserves that adjoin the Kruger. Both experiences are unique and infi nitely rewarding, and last from three days upwards.

Northern KwaZulu-Natal This tour commences and ends in Durban. The tour encompasses the great park of Hluhluwe-Umfolozi with the world’s greatest concentration of white and black rhino, as well as being home to the big fi ve. Then there is a visit to a traditional village to experience the history and rich tapestry of culture of the proud Zulu nation. There is also a visit to the World Heritage site of iSmangaliso Wetland park, whilst in Durban there is a visit to the Sharks Board and to the Ushaka Marine World.

Namibian Spectacular Namibia is a country of superlatives, from the mighty Fish River canyon to the highest dunes in the world near Sossusvlei, from cosmopolitan cities like Swakopmund and Windhoek to extraordinary national parks like Etosha. This is a land of splendid contrasts, where the overall impression is of vast open spaces and an endless African sky. Tours are available ex Cape Town, Johannesburg or Windhoek and the average duration is 7-10 days.

Botswana’s Okavango Delta Possibly the fi nest scenery for wildlife in Africa. Pristine and primeval Africa is offset by superb private lodges where you can experience the best of the African wilderness. Any trip to the Okavango is unforgettable and life-changing. Packages depart Johannesburg and Cape Town and normally are a minimum of three days, although travellers can extend to spend time at a number of distinctly different lodges. The Okavango is a vast wetland in the Kalahari Desert where the desert is transformed into a wildlife paradise, and as such water-based and land packages make for a unique blend of experiences.

Postberg, West Coast 741 Victoria Falls The Victoria Falls or Mosi-oa-Tunya (the Mist that Thunders) is a waterfall located in southern Africa on the Zambezi River between the countries of Zambia and Zimbabwe. The falls are some of the largest in the world. The Victoria Falls are considered by some to be among the Seven Natural Wonders of the World David Livingstone, the Scottish missionary and explorer, is believed to have been the fi rst European recorded to view the Victoria Falls. For a considerable distance above the falls, the Zambezi fl ows over a level sheet of basalt, in a shallow valley bounded by low and distant sandstone hills. The river’s course is dotted with numerous tree-covered islands, which increase in number as the river approaches the falls. There are no mountains, escarpments, or deep valleys which might be expected to create a waterfall, only fl at plateau extending hundreds of kilometres in all directions. The falls are formed as the full width of the river plummets in a single vertical drop into a transverse chasm 1708 meters (5604 ft) wide, carved by its waters along a fracture zone in the basalt plateau. Victoria Falls is roughly thrice the height of North America’s Niagara Falls and well over twice the width of its Horseshoe Falls. In height and width Victoria Falls is rivalled only by South America’s Iguazu Falls.

Tropical Paradises South Africans have known for many years of the most wonderful tropical island destinations on their doorstep, enough to make the Caribbean or Pacifi c quite ordinary. These special island destinations are just a fl ight away from South Africa.
